Rail-type Telescopic Multi-Level Pipe Racking

Engineered for Heavy-Duty Performance: The Robust Design of Rail-type Telescopic Multi-Level Pipe Racking

When storing heavy industrial materials like metal pipes, steel profiles, and lengthy raw stock, structural integrity is non-negotiable. The storage system must be more than just space-efficient; it must be an absolute pillar of strength, safety, and durability. The Herochu Rail-type Telescopic Multi-Level Pipe Racking system is engineered from the ground up with this paramount principle in mind. It is a robust solution designed for heavy-duty performance, seamlessly combining the space-maximizing benefits of mobility with the unwavering stability required for multi-ton loads.

The foundation of this robustness is its high-grade construction. The system’s vertical columns, cantilever arms, and base frames are manufactured from high-tensile strength structural steel. This material is carefully selected and processed to withstand constant stress, dynamic loads during expansion/contraction, and the demanding environment of an industrial warehouse. For applications involving exceptionally long or heavy materials like wide-flange beams or thick-walled pipes, we offer our heavy-duty “B” series customized models, such as the HC-B6020-66. These models are designed with reinforced bracing, thicker gauge steel, and enhanced welds to handle the most challenging storage requirements, ensuring your valuable and potentially hazardous materials are secured without compromise.

A critical component of this system’s strength is the integrated pull-out type cantilever arm design. Unlike bolt-on arms that can become points of weakness, our arms are seamlessly integrated into the vertical column structure or utilize a massively reinforced locking mechanism. This design ensures that the moment load—the force exerted by the weight of the pipes extending out from the column—is distributed evenly across the entire rack structure. Each arm is engineered to support its advertised capacity, such as 3 tons, 5 tons, or even 6 tons per layer in customized setups, without deflection or risk of failure. This allows for the safe storage of immense weight, as seen in our HC-G9055D model which boasts a total loading capacity of 42 tons per rack unit.

The mobility mechanism, far from being a liability, is a feat of precision engineering. The racks glide on heavy-duty steel tracks that are securely anchored to a leveled concrete floor. The carriages feature high-capacity industrial wheels or rollers, often made from polyurethane or forged steel, designed to bear the immense weight of the loaded rack. The movement is powered and controlled by a sophisticated PLC frequency conversion control system. This system ensures smooth, jerk-free acceleration and deceleration, eliminating the dangerous swaying or sudden shifts that could destabilize the load. The frequency conversion technology optimizes motor performance, reducing mechanical stress and energy consumption during operation.

Safety is inextricably linked to robust design. Our Rail Type Telescopic Cantilever Shelves Storage system incorporates multiple safety features. These include automatic anti-tilt locks that engage when the racks are in the closed, compact position, preventing accidental movement. Safety sweeps and photoelectric sensors are installed to detect any obstruction in the aisle during expansion, immediately halting movement. The control system also features overload protection and emergency stop buttons at strategic locations. This multi-layered safety approach ensures that the system’s immense power is always under precise, reliable control.

Customization is key to meeting specific strength requirements. The standard distance between layers (e.g., 600mm or 800mm) can be adjusted to accommodate different pipe diameters or bundle heights. The length of the cantilever arms, such as the 800mm arms on our larger models, can be tailored to support specific material lengths and weights optimally. For storing Profile Steel Pipes or other materials that require specialized support, custom arm end designs (e.g., with V-shaped saddles or roller attachments) can be integrated to enhance stability and prevent rolling.

In essence, the Herochu Rail-type telescopic cantilever shelves system redefines what it means to be a “strong” storage solution. It moves beyond the static strength of traditional racks, adding dynamic, engineered strength that is active during its most critical function: movement. This combination allows you to achieve unparalleled storage density without sacrificing an iota of safety or load-bearing capability, making it the definitive choice for heavy-duty Metal Storage Shelves applications in steel service centers, piping manufacturers, construction material warehouses, and any facility where strength and space are top priorities.
